DESCRIPTION:
A good deck I was very excited to run across a tarock deck from Italian manufacturer Modiano, distributed by U.S Games Systems. Upon inspection, I found the imagery in the trumps and suit cards to be that of the standard imagery found commonly in tarock decks. The only reason I rate three stars is because the image quality is low.

Well i got my new deck opened them up and no instructions are included, (the item description said they were) I am going to contact amazon and try to get a refund but they were opened and may not qualify. I might be able to get directions online if worse comes to worse-- otherwise i have a pretty but useless deck.
The deck includes 22 trump cards that feature double-ended scenes. Complete with instructions by John McLeod for 3 and 4 players.. The 32 suit cards are uniquely dispersed-including King, Queen, Knight, and Page in each of the four suits, numbers 7 to 10 represented in the black suits, and numbers 1 to 4 represented in the red suits
